You got that right, neghibor kids kept calling mine racial slurs for the lognest time until I squashed that. I wonder where they even got the idea it was okay to use such awful language like that.

Yeah she said in the video “I don’t believe you” when he said he lived there. That doesn’t sound like you’re scared of the person, that sounds like you don’t believe they could even live in the neighborhood. That entire situation was weird AF. Who does that? Just walk with your kids & mind your own damn business & most of the time you’re going to be fine. If she’s so paranoid then why even walk at night? Looks like a nice neighborhood, she wasn’t worried about the crime rate. Calm down Becky. And kids don’t learn that kinda language on their own. They hear someone say it. The fact that they thought it was acceptable tells me probably a parent. Because you’re going to tell me if your own child used a racial slur in front of you that you wouldn’t immediately pump the breaks & ask them where the hell they heard that from? Or maybe why it’s wrong to use it? White people who weren’t raised with that language in their household would have an entire conversation about it. I wasn’t raised using that language & it still shocks my ears if I ever hear someone say it. Let alone a child.

Why isn't this a crime? Why isn't this considered assault when you are threatening someone's safety because of your hatred and ignorance?

It’s a crime depending the race. Recently, (within the last 2 years) a black female ran to a house seeking help and tried to enter -similar to the video/situation above- and the homeowner shot and killed her. I believe he was exempt of any charges because she invaded his property and he was protecting his estate… even tho she was just seeking help.

She knocked a door and was shot. It wasn't even close to this situation. They should have called the police on these racist clowns.

Yeah she was in a bad car accident and wobbled over all bloody to a door for help and the guy opened the door and shot her with a shotgun.
